B decided a while ago that he's going to quit smoking. He's never been a heavy smoker until he got this job...now he's up to a pack a day.
Well he got a huge shipment of those Commit Lozanges. He started complaining because you can't eat or drink anything for 45 minutes (15 minutes prior to taking one and then 20-30 minutes). I counteracted with "Well the whole idea is that it not only feeds your nicotine, but it also teaches you control over oral fixations". In which the response went right into the toilet after that...
Anyhoo, well I Had given him bad advice by saying to keep an emergency pack. He didn't listen and say hide or have someone else (me) hide it. So then you know if its an emergency you're going to LOOK for it.
Well, it didn't even last a full day with him. I went to bed, woke up and he told me he did have an emergency pack and had a few last night.
I really hope he quits...I am so sick and tired of walking out of the house and smelling like I was at a bar (the air ducts travel well in the house). I was OK with him smoking, but once he upped his habit, it just became very digusting to me...plus he smoked a brand that really made him smell like he never even took a shower...like he had gone without showering or brushing for days.
I would tell him my other remedy for quitting was to reinforce exercising...the more I exercised, the more I felt like crap if I did have a smoke.
But now he's talking about switching to the patch instead. I vote just to pay the hypnotist $50 and be done with it.
Well, day 2 begins in an hour...or actually Day 1 x2.
